Bacon recipes
Bacon is one of the most versatile ingredients you can have in your fridge, and it’s a hard flavour to substitute – or beat. Try smoked, unsmoked, back or a good rasher of streaky – and buy the best you can afford. No surprise it’s a feature of many a breakfast, but try it also with pancakes, salads, stews and even as an infusing ingredient in booze, like this candied bacon bourbon.
